Everlast Armor Abs II

This is the worst piece of junk I have purchased. I should have looked at the reviews first. I put it together and it broke right away. I tried to fix it and it worked for three usese. After the thirs use, the bands snaped and I had to throw it away. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS!!!!

The armor abs II seemed to work pretty good for the first couple of days but then one of the elastic bands on the inside snapped within one week. I had it on the hardest setting at the time when it broke. I followed the instructions on how many reps should be done each time and how to use the product correctly and within one week it broke. The idea behind it seems pretty good and seems to work but I think you are better of getting a more quality built product from another company.

This little device is easy to put together and easy to use. Not for 'intensive' workouts however, you can pretty much use it anyplace you're sitting down. That could mean even while the TV is on! Like all exercise equipment, if you don't use it you lose it.

I bought the armor abs because my gym membership just ended at my college. So I wanted to get a few small workout machines for home. The day i got it, one of the rubber bands popped of its holder already. The machine is designed very poorly, although what can you expect for the price. I've had to reattach the bands at least 15 times over the past week, and today one of the rubber band holders snapped in half, leaveing that resistance level useless :-( . Overall though, i have to say, i really love this thing. If it wasnt for the d*mn bands flyin off all the time, it would be a great peice of equipment. If you use it carefully and correctly, you may be able to avoid these problems though. I give it a two because i love the machine, but i hate its bad habits....

Very easy to use and adjustments to tension are made by just turning the handle. The abs 2 gives you are very good workout with minimum effort. Its a lot better than doing conventional crunches or situps.
